ABSTRACT

Introduction: the nosocomial infections are a health problem in postoperative patients.
Objective: to assess the postoperative infections incidence.
Method: a cross-sectional study in 452 patients, 64 with infections, at Neurosurgery service from Lucía Iñiguez hospital, from February 2010 to January 2012 was carried out. In the statistical analysis the Chi square was applied considering statistically significance p‹0.05 and odds ratio was calculated with a confidence interval of 95 %.
Results: the surgical wound was the main site of infection with 48.43 %. A surgical time higher than four hours was associated with the occurrence of infection. The use of continuous spinal drainage and surgical drainage increased the risk of sepsis in nervous central system in 2.83 and 9.77 times.
Conclusions: the nosocomial infections in neurosurgical postoperative were associated with multiple factors like procedures performed, a large surgical time, and invasive procedures.
